For this week's #BlueSkyArtShow I would like to share a photo of my tiny watercolor landscapes in a mini art gallery in my neighborhood.

I think this painting at China Bar in the Auburn State Recreation Area captures the #Bright light of that summer morning. Why was I choosing to paint while squinting into the sunlight when it was already over 90 degrees Fahrenheit at 9AM? The world may never know. #BlueSkyArtShow

I am pretty happy with this orchid painting.

For #BlueSkyArtShow this week, I am sharing a quick painting from quite a while ago that was inspired by grasses growing near a pile of fallen leaves in the sun.
This week's theme is #Autumn.

I was trying to figure out what art I have that would showcase the theme for today, #inside

And then I realized, this skull used to be inside of a wildcat.

This was done in carbon dust, a typical medium for medical illustration.

Today's theme is #vertical which makes me realize I focus on horizontal quite a bit.
Anyway, these sunflowers have strong vertical stalks.

#BlueSkyArtShow #Glow
Today I am sharing this painting of Grassnut flowers, also known as Ithuriel's Spear, with the glow of sunshine coming through the petals.

Today's theme is #Relax
Years ago, I painted my husband on a vacation, playing video games on his laptop. It was such a peaceful day.

For today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme #TheRoad I am sharing one that I didn't really like, but looking at it again I see there are aspects that I appreciate. The flowers on the right are a very pale variety of Ithuriel's Spear, aka Grassnut.

#BlueSkyArtShow today's theme is #angles
So I thought I would share this quick painting I made to experiment with metallic watercolor a few years ago.

Last weekend, I was at UC Davis for the YoloArts.org August farm visit.
Bringing art & agriculture together, and here, ag science.
It was hot enough that my phone decided to stop taking pictures, but otherwise a great day.
Scientists are out there trying to improve food, medicine, life...

Here's an old one for the #BlueSkyArtShow theme #Shiny
I had a boring temp job at the time, so I drew this at work.

Today's #BlueSkyArtShow is #pieces which seems like a good fit for my Oak Tree painting that was done on 20 8" squares of black watercolor paper.

#BlueSkyArtShow #Smooth
I called this one Molten Wings...

One of the things I love about living in California is the fresh produce all year. But that wouldn't be possible without thousands of hardworking farm laborers.

#BlueSkyArtShow #SummerDaze
I called this one August Sun.

Ironically missed the #BlueSkyArtShow for June 28th with the theme of #GetOutside because I was, in fact, outside painting.
Work in progress from Rodegerdts farm in Yolo County.

Just over two years of work...
Researched the native oaks of Northern California and picked leaves to use as inspiration & stamps.
Painted everything white first for contrast, then added color.
Replaced a few squares when I got lost in detail & forgot to consider the composition.

#BlueSkyArtShow
Looks like today's theme is #narrow
I called this one Pinchpoint.

Today's theme is #Joy

I have to say that what brings me the most joy is the people I love, so here's one of my daughter and her friend from several years ago.
